    Sorry to butt in, but does anyone have any suggestions for toys for a 10 month old? I seriously need to get rid of some of Elliot's more babyish stuff now and get things that will stimulate and teach him things, and keep his attention for a little while. He's now very bored, and I'm not sure what to get?
    a wooden spoon and a saucepan. :rotfl: You'll need ear defenders once he gets the hang of it. :rotfl:

    That is my fear! :eek: ;)

    How are things with you, Choc? Haven't seen you here recently.

    xx

    I'm fine, thanks for asking. Happily counting away the days left at school until we go on holiday. I am on here fairly often, just can't keep up with all the chat - you all talk sooo much!

    Oooh, get you Nichola. I always felt hard done to 'cos my Mum didn't give me the 'h'.

    Mum says up until my birth, I wa going to be Rachel. I always used to think I'd have had more fun as a Rachel. :confused:

    I'm a Rachel and I can't say I have a lot of fun!

    Congrats MFD and MFD's niece!


    Other things - not sure I agree on the getting an easy child after a difficult one theory. DS was (and still is) a dream - easy as can be, DD was quite hard work, quite demanding and forever attempting dangerous activities and Tom is like the twin she never had - he acts like her and even looks like her. On the bright side, from about the age of two and a half, DD has been lovely (though still not quite as easy-going as DS) so i'm hoping we only have another year of Tom's demanding behaviour.

    I'm another one who isn't supposed to use Facebook because of work - starting to feel I'm missing out though.

    Sertraline (brand name Zoloft). The KM Forums seem to suggest that it is okay to take while nursing, but I don't know how to bring that up with the Doctor, without sounding like a crazy/difficult Mum who thinks she knows better!

    I have no idea how to edit tmy post without it sounding like medical advice so um, there we go!
    Comping, freebieing and trying to pay the mortgage off early!

    possibly, depends if anyone else has a monitor/2way radio nearby.
    My friends had the same V expensive angelcare monitor and lived nxt door to each other where always hearing each others LOs and we pick up the taxi drivers because we live next to a pub and train station:rolleyes:

    I think AM got the £9.99 one so ,maybe she can give feedback on it
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.
